“Anthony Joshua vs Daniel Dubois Fight: Prize Money Breakdown and Future Title Implications”
The highly anticipated clash between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois is just around the corner, set to take place this Saturday, 21st September, at London's iconic Wembley Stadium. With 96,000 spectators expected, this showdown promises to be an electrifying contest between two heavyweight titans.
Both Joshua and Dubois are familiar with one another, having trained together in the past. However, when they step into the ring, camaraderie will be replaced by fierce competition. The IBF World Heavyweight Championship, currently held by Dubois, is on the line, and the winner will also move one step closer to facing the victor of the forthcoming Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury rematch, scheduled for December.
Anthony Joshua, with a record of 28-3, will be fighting at Wembley for the third time. After suffering his first career loss to Andy Ruiz Jr. in 2018, he reclaimed his titles a year later, only to lose them to Usyk in two consecutive fights. Now, Joshua is on a mission of redemption, having secured four subsequent victories, including a knockout win against UFC star Francis Ngannou.
Dubois (21-2), who lost to Usyk in a controversial bout due to a low blow, bounced back by defeating Filip Hrgović in June, earning the interim IBF title. After Usyk vacated the title, Dubois was elevated to full champion status, setting the stage for this monumental fight.
How Much Will Joshua and Dubois Earn?
The fight is being organised by Riyadh Season, Matchroom Boxing, and Queensberry Promotions, and as is common with such major events, financial details are often kept under wraps until fight night. However, reports indicate that Anthony Joshua, despite being the challenger, is expected to take home the bigger purse.
According to Total Sportal, Joshua’s guaranteed purse for this fight is estimated at £6.3 million ($7.9 million), but with pay-per-view (PPV) earnings, this figure could soar to over £23.8 million ($30 million).
Meanwhile, Daniel Dubois is expected to pocket £3.7 million ($4.6 million), with the potential for this sum to rise to £10.3 million ($13 million) when factoring in PPV sales, marking the biggest payday of his career to date.
With both fighters eyeing a chance to challenge for further heavyweight supremacy, Saturday's bout is shaping up to be a pivotal moment in the careers of Joshua and Dubois.
